Shelby clone. What is needed

[cedarman]

Hey all,

I may have a shelby front clip and hood fall on my lap for free. Yes I know I have a horse shoe up my ass..

What else will I need to bolt these on? I know I'll need some new headlights and front grills. Will I need to change the fenders?

These will all be OEM parts prepainted my color.

Also the company I am getting these from is National Mustang. The owner passed and the kids asked that I help them move off the inventory.
Any help and or advice would be appreciated.

iirc there are several thread on this swap, did you search at all first?

If you had looked this up on AM or LMR, you'd see everything required to do the conversion.

I'm sorry all. I was unware that I can't sell on this site, nor was I trying to. Just trying to get some help with my upgrade that I will be doing.

I wasn't trying to break any rules

its not so much that you cant sell, its the fact that there is a search button on the top of the page and it really bothers people here when the same thing gets asked over and over when theres an easy way of finding answers to those questions

if it's a 07-09 the fenders are the same. there is a snake on GT500 fenders.
the headlights are different, you will need grills, the fog lights are different, the fog light wiring will probably be needed to be extended or get a fog light harness, you will need a lower spoiler, and I think the energy absorber is different.

I am put a front end on a 08 GT500 2 weeks ago in the bodyshop I work in.

Get your wallet ALL THE WAY out. The headlights, grills, foglights, brackets, etc will cost a ton of money. If you want to sell the hood and bumper cover LMK. I can use the spares for the race car.

Just what the world needs another Shelby clone lol.

Clones are only for chics with dicks.

The front clip is the cheap part. It will still cost you about $1000 for the rest of the stuff.

A 1000 is probably low. Try 1250 or so. Just went through it on my boys car...
